Activity Summary
Required reading for all learners: Implicit Bias impacts patient outcomes
Anticoagulants are among the most commonly prescribed medications, but in critically ill or injured patients, these medications can result in increased morbidity and mortality. Reversal of anticoagulation is not always straightforward. In this session, we discuss when and how to reverse anticoagulants, considering the risks and benefits and examining reversal strategies for the most commonly encountered drugs.Objectives
- Interpet laboratory data related to acute coagulopathy, including traditional tests of coagulation and viscoelastic testing such as TEG.
- Compare targeted versus nontargeted reversal strategies for anticoagulation medications.
- Design a treatment strategy for the acutely bleeding patient on anticoagulation medications.
